Most Annoying Televised Poker Players Sweet 16: Mike Matusow v Shawn Sheikhan (1 Viewer)

5. Mike matusow

The stand-out moment Mike Matusow made the radar of most poker fans, when he needled Raymer in the 2004 WSOP

Gets his money in bad and suckouts, calls the other guy a motherfucker and celebrates

8. Shawn Sheikhan

Shawn was that special kind of arrogant, priviledged and knew it, with that perpetual my-shit-doesn't-stink smirk on his face who played the villian in many episodes of televised poker, often butting heads with Matusow

Breaks Matusows glasses, acts like a classic bully. Matusow doesn't stand up for himself, perhaps because he is afraid of a real fight with Sheikhan, or perhaps he was being staked by Shawn at some point (this is a rumor I heard, but I don't have anything to verify)

i find matusow entertaining. sheiky is just a dick.

 

[Anthony Martino]

Matusow can be hit or miss for me, but I never found Sheiky entertaining. Seems like an arrogant bully and love to see him knocked down a few pegs.

Matusow is pretty transparent if he's been on or off the devilish dandruff. I was just watching a clip last night when he was kind of a dick for no reason and did a loud, fake, obnoxious laugh in some guy's face so I'm picking him.

From what I've read elsewhere, he was in his early 20's when he was charged with the thing on the 17 year old girl. So it's not like he was 38 banging a 5 year old, fwiw. But still a grade-A douche for sure.

Sheikhan, a resident alien since he was nine years old, was arrested at his Las Vegas home on August 30, 2007 for violating his immigration status due to a 1995 conviction for misdemeanor sexual battery on a child under 18, where he served nine months in prison and 5 years probation.[3] According to Sheikhan's lawyer, David Chesnoff, the young woman in this case was a 17-year-old girl that Sheikhan knew when he was in his early 20s. The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) actively searches for foreign nationals who were convicted of a sexual crime against children and then tries to get them deported.[4] He was detained on an immigration hold for 1 week facing deportation proceedings however those proceedings have been since halted

But upon further review, the page shows he was born in 1969. So in 1995 he'd have been 26 years old, not sure that qualifies as "early 20's", but no surprise that's coming from his attorney

Still does not change the fact that he was convicted and spent time for it and he is still as ass. he wins. But thanks for the info @Anthony Martino
